talkstowolvesINTERFICTIONS Jewelry Auction Begins Today!
. . . So head on over to IAFAuctions.com to see our first two wonderful pieces based on stories from the first Interstitial Arts anthology, bid on these collectible one-of-a-kind pieces, and support the IAF.
*****
April 30, 2008 marked the one year anniversary of the Interfictions anthology release. This groundbreaking anthology showcasing nineteen writers from four countries gave a glimpse into what interstitial fiction might look like (without drawing any clear borders).
To celebrate the anniversary, the Interstitial Arts Foundation (IAF) invited jewelry makers to further blur the borders by creating pieces based on the stories in Interfictions, which will be auctioned off to benefit IAF beginning May 5th.
Interstitial artists and admirers of Interfictions have come forward with some truly stunning pieces based on Interfictions stories by Matthew Cheney, Catherynne M. Valente, Jon Singer, Veronica Schanoes, and Colin Greenland. Participants include artists Elise Matthesen, JoSelle Vanderhooft, Mia Nutick, Kris McDermott, and many more.
And, most remarkably, some of the authors themselves have created unique pieces based on their own work! Keep an eye on IAFAuctions.com to see wearable interpretations of their own work by Interfictions authors Leslie What, Rachel Pollack, and K. Tempest Bradford.
Our auction launches on May 5 with complex and elegant pieces from Sarah Evans and JoSelle Vanderhooft, based on the stories "A Map of the Everywhere" and "A Dirge for Prester John".
New pieces will go up every two days and auctions will last for 4-7 days. Bid early and often--bids start as low as $10! All proceeds will go to supporting Interstitial Arts projects, including the second Interfictions volume, Interfictions 2, to be published in Fall 2009.
And please help support Interfictions and the IAF by spreading the word about the auction.
